Andy Gabrielson and I were on a storm that formed near Merriman, Nebraska and trekked southeast across Cherry county into Hooker county, Nebraska yesterday, giving us a beautifully-sculpted supercell towards dusk. We also experienced some small hail and some strong winds before the storm fell apart near Tryon, Nebraska! Extremely large hail destroyed vehicles yesterday on I-90 in South Dakota up to baseball-sized and evidently caused some accidents there! To the left, is a photo of the supercell south of Mullen, Nebraska

Today, the potential is, again, there for a few tornadoes and very large hail across portions of Nebraska, South Dakota and possibly Minnesota and Iowa. We're currently sitting in Springview, Nebraska, waiting on initiation in the vicinity and expect a few supercells within the area. The map, below, shows the foreceasted RUC EHIs in the area at 0z (or 7 p.m. CST), where we expect storms to initiate and move along.
